Ido1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase activity. Involved in quinolinate biosynthetic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including carboxylic acid metabolic process; regulation of apoptotic process; and regulation of cytokine production. Located in smooth muscle contractile fiber and stereocilium bundle. Is expressed in cerebral cortex; corpus striatum; embryo; extraembryonic component; and hippocampus. Used to study pre-eclampsia. Orthologous to human IDO1 (indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Ido1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
